Would be nice if you also mention you checked that it is safe to have both devm and shared interrupts (so you investigated possibility of race on exit path). Best regards, Krzysztof

I didn't see any problems with devm being used with SHARED when I posted it out. After your review comments I went back again to vett the exit path for races and ran into an pre-existing splat [1] but the bwmon instances work as expected on module removal/re-insertion.

Using devm and shared interrupts is in general sign of possible race issues and should be avoided. Just "not seeing problems" is not an argument for me, to be honest. Best regards, Krzysztof

Also can you elaborate on what race do you think the bwmon will hit rather than being too generic about it? -Sibi > > Best regards, > Krzysztof >

Having IRQF_SHARED means that the IRQ can still be triggered even though IRQ for this device has been disabled in bwmon_disable(). In this particular case such IRQ probably won't cause issues, but at least it needs to be validated and probably commented in bwmon_remove(). Just stating that "you tested and had no problems" usually isn't enough for the expected race condition issues.

Cool, thanks for the info. I'll get this fixed in the next re-spin. -Sibi >

The multiple BWMONv4 instances available on the X1E80100 SoC use the same interrupt number. Mark them are shared to allow for re-use across instances. Signed-off-by: Sibi Sankar <quic_sibis@quicinc.com> --- drivers/soc/qcom/icc-bwmon.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
